Mexico weather conditions throughout the year

Mexico is in North America and the coasts of the land are surrounding waters of the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean.
In Mexico, there is no particular climate. It is due to geographical diversity, i.e., the proximity of the desert and the mountains and the ocean. Climate is therefore very unpredictable and varied. Because of that, the Mexico climate is divided into three vertical belts. The lowest, tierra caliente (hot land) includes tropical lowlands in the eastern coast, with a high temperature and high rainfall (3000-5000 mm).
Above that hot zone is tierra templada (temperate land) with temperate climates. Above 2000 m is the tierra fria (cold country), where the seasons (especially summer and winter) are severe. Interior basins and plains have the characteristics of continental climate, with warm summers and cold winters with rainfall of up to 500 mm; to the northwest the rainfall amount decreases to 100 mm. Most of the precipitations bring moist northeast trade winds, which blow from the Gulf of Mexico. Because of this and because of the cold sea currents, the Pacific coast is dry. Yucatán limestone is exposed to the drought, while the mountainous region in the far south has abundant rain.
The hurricane season begins in June and lasts until November; the largest percentage of the hurricane takes place in August and October. Acapulco and Baja Peninsula may also be affected by hurricanes in the summer season. In Baja Peninsula wind can last for days.
